Giants set to face Mets’ Wheeler

Steve Kroner subbing for Henry Schulman for the finale of the three-game series against the Mets:

The Mets will start Zack Wheeler (2-1, 4.29 ERA), whom they acquired from the Giants in the Carlos Beltran deal in 2011. Bruce Bochy hasn’t seen the Giants’ 2009 first-round pick (sixth overall) in person, but Bochy has seen enough video of Wheeler to be impressed:

“Power arm,” Bochy said in his pregame news conference. “Real good, live arm. Ball has a lot of life. He’s got one of those fastballs that seems likes it’s got another gear on it when it gets to home plate.”
